Marker Question

Chuck- which markers did you use when you did the marker toons?

Anyone else know a good brand of markers to use.

Jason,

I used Prismacolor, they are fantastic if you use the right paper... That's what the Industrial Design department at my college recommended too. Be prepared though, they aren't cheap.

I know. I've used them before also. I was just hoping there would be an alternative brand that was a little bit cheaper.

there may be but I think you will get the better selection of colors and gradiants with the prismacolor

Jason--what I started with was a brand called "Design 2" which is no
longer available. Quality was good and the price was a bit less then Prismacolor.
(Started with a 24 color set.)

As they dried out, I replaced them with Prismacolor markers as that was the
only alternative I could find at our local art supply stores.
